@dan
"we're on a road to nowhere" lol
while I agree that open source comes with a responsibility to give back, it doesn't stop corporations from profiteering.

i don't know how many people are still working on Meego (or more specifically DE) but any progress is good progress. in my view.

edit: oh and if i was to tout it's greatest feature..... that would be the fact that Nokia is continuing to support development of meego on the N900 at all. that's something that under the gpl, the ARE NOT obligated to do.

edit2: typed from my N900 Meego device ;)

dudes dudes dudes
dont be selfish all of you developers
why should i pay for MeeGo i have already paid for N900 and if nokia cannot support its own operating system (Maemo) like not making applications updates and stuff then they must provide an alternate (MeeGo) free of charge.
I am anyways bored of this phone me buying myself a new one
Its for geeks i am not an iFan but Apple is really keeping its consumers happy
like not only non developers but look at you guys you all are also waiting for dumb MeeGo and all you get is a developer edition after all that long wait and still you're supporting it and developing applications for it just for free :p
Anyways good luck guys i might have two new phone while you guys still waiting for MeeGo to release :D and i am sure about it

onethreealpha hwich daily are you using - acceptance or sanity?

Re: MeeGo 1.2 Release?????
 
actually cut back to the 07 June build of acceptance. i had screen rotation issues with the 08 June image but it may have just been a dirty write to the sdcard when i dd'd it.
will try the 08 June image again tomorrow.

FYI APN is only a placeholder at the moment. package manager fails due to de-testing repo being unsigned.
if you want to try packagekit, in terminal, run as root:
#zypper clean
#zypper refresh

the refresh will ask for confirmation of acceptance for unsigned repo.
exit terminal and re-open package-kit from menu.
i found you need to long press icons in packagekit to move throught the application menus.

regards

edit: fennec still as slow as a wet winter weekend, but general responsiveness seems improved, esp. after a reboot

Yup. You cannot automatically apply Free Software mentality to any software you have source code access. ;)
